The deer and the mushrooms.

Encountered yesterday in Copper Falls State Park. This is not a petting zoo, but a path through a scenic river area. Note the massive railing along the edge of the path. The state of Wisconsin is apparently concerned that its citizens, out for a walk, will tumble over the precipice. The national government ? as you can see here ? is far less protective of its bumbling, stumbling citizens.


I have another video clip of me walking up to the deer and saying "Hi, sweetheart." Then, another woman walks up and says ? to the deer ? "Hi, baby." So this is how women talk to deer? If so, why didn't we at least say "Hi, dear"?
